The Queer Issue: Rachel Maddow, the New Sexy: "The Butch is back, with a poster girl." Love it. Thanks to Caitlin for the heads up!

Left: love so much of the stuff in this Flikr stream!

Great interview with David Sedaris in The Guardian.

For my girl ELM: "Too Close"


Harsh truths, important reading: "The National Prison Rape Elimination Commission final report is grim reading, especially the finding that prisoners report more rape committed by guards than by other prisoners."

Related: "Rape In Prison Should Not Be Part Of The Punishment: Once someone becomes part of the prison industrial complex, socially they lose a measure of humanity because we declare them to be lesser than individuals. Some crimes are certainly heinous in nature, however rape should never be understood as reasonable response in a so-called civilized and or advanced society."
